I’m usually a harsh critic on biopics because I find the characters to lack the right mannerisms or for the details in the film to be inaccurate. This one however has my attention.
The biopic on the late great Tupac Shakur is set to hit theaters on June 16th. The trailer features Demetrius Shipp Jr as Tupac as well as several key portrayals shown in the film from The Notorious B.I.G., Suge Knight and Jada Pinkett. The film follows the rise of one of the greatest figures in music history from his days on the streets of New York to the height of his world wide fame.
June 16th would have been the 46th birthday for Tupac. The trailer also drops as Tupac will be inducted today into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
